Unboxing // Mishibox November 2016
Another month another Mishibox! I like this on even more than than the October edition, because of all the cute things from Tony Moly!
Mediheal Petalpoten Hydrop Sleeping Mask // Lotus
I've only tried sheet masks of this brand so far and really liked them, especially the Teatree Care Solution which I've also reviewed in the past. Also sleeping packs are nice and convenient, especially if you didn't have enough time to put on a sheet mask. I apply one almost every day because I need that extra moisture and hydration as the weather gets colder now.
There are three different versions available in the box: Lotus for pore thightening and impoving elasticity, Primrose which is great for moisturizing, repair and skin tone control and Rose which is supposed to calm and moisturize your skin.
If the Lotuse version works well, I'll definitely consider buying the other two as well! They're also really pretty so they'd make great christmas gifts.
Retails for: 15$ / 55ml
Hongik Skin Hand Butter Cream // Lovely Rose
I got the most festive looking packaging of all the six different flavours. This immediately put me in a holiday mood! I really like the scent but it might be a little too strong and overwhelming for those who are sensitive to smells. Just wanted to put that out there.
I keep it on my table so I won't forget to moisturize my hands every once in a while as they really need it!
This hand cream is available in Cherry Blossom, Apple Mango, Petti Baby, Pure Clean Soap, Romantic Musk and Lovely Rose.
Retails for: 6$ / 50ml
Tony Moly Panda Brightening Eyebase // Petite Bunny Gloss Bar #03 Juicy Apple
Two super cute Tony Moly products! This brand is very popular especially because of - you can probably guess - their adorable packaging designs! I'm no stranger to Tony Moly, I actually own a few of these bunny gloss bars and love them. Actually I already have the excact same flavor so I'm currently giving it away in my current giveaway over on instagram! You can check it out here. I have yet to try the eyebase but I already fell in love with the panda. 
Retails for: Gloss Bars: 8$ / 2g; Brightening Eyebase: 12$ / 9g
Esfolio Pure Skin Essence Sheet Mask // Snail
For this month's sheet mask I got the snail version of the two available in the box! I love snail in skincare products and am so excited to try this one out.
This sheetmask is available in Snail Essence (soothing and regenarating tired skin), Milk Essence (helps maintaining clean and clear skin while promoting skin elasticity and hydration) and two oher types which are not featured in the November box: Pearl Essence (moisturizing and nourishing for glowy skin) and Red Ginseng Essence (keeps skin soft and brightened, helps maintaining a good oil-moisture balance).
Retails for: 2$ / 25ml

This month's box is worth around 43$, a little less than las month but I like the selection of products more than last time.

Unboxing // Mishibox October 2016
I know it's already December and this Mishibox I'm about to show you is from October but let's just pretend I'm not too late for once!
This time the box was filled with products from Brands I've either never tried or haven't heard of yet! It's always super exciting for me to get a box exactly for this reason.
Hongik Skin 02 Bubble Foam Cleanser / Aqua or Olive version
I always love getting cleansers as it's one of the most important step in every skincare routine and should definitely not be forgotten. This one is the olive version of the two foam cleansers available and promises to be more moisturizing than the aqua version. I haven't tried it yet as I'm still using another cleanser. Once I've gotten around testing it, I'll give you an update and maybe a review.
Retails for: 22$ / 120ml
MCC Accent Gel Eyeliner
The brand MCC isn't new to me as it's been in another Mishibox already. So far I can say their products perform quite well. My first impression is definitely good! It's got a very clever packaging as the brush already comes with the gel liner itself so it's quite travel friendly. I usually just use eyeliner pens as I'm more used to them and they're more convenient but I'll try this on a daily basis soon. So far all the gel liners I've used dried out way too quickly so I'm worried this one will too.
Retails for: 18$ / 5g
Ladykin Affinitic Cream/Moisturizer & Ladykin Green Harmony Mask Pack
I finally got one of the cute tiny snails I've wanted ever since I've seen them on my instagram feed! They're seriously adorable, right? I got the pink version which is formulated with 80 % Snail Mucin Filtrate. It's supposed to moisturize, provide anti-aging, skin elasticity, prevent skin damage and benefits for glossy skin.
The second Ladykin product is a wash-off pack. It comes in several different types: pumpkin, blueberry, pear and chrysanthemum. I got the pear version which should help to repair skin damage, moisturize, heal acne and control sebum.
Retails for: Ladykin Snail: 5$ / 5ml (Mini Size); 22$ / 100ml (Full Size);
Mask Pack: 3$ / 10ml
Proud Mary Animal Mask Pack
Last but not least, perfect for Halloween, a chracter sheet mask! I got the cute monkey mask which is for soothing, pore care and sebum control.
Retails for: 3$ / 25g

To be honest I'm always surprised how the Mishibox team always finds brands that might not be well known or famous outside of Korea!
This month's box is worth around 51$ depending on where you buy the produtcs.

Mishibox August 2016 Review & Unboxing
Though some have already received the Mishibox of September I still wanted to share my unboxing and thoughts about August's box. It arrived quite late, as shipping to Germany always takes a while but that's not a big issue for me. Every month I'm always excited which products are featured and can't wait to open the next boxes. Of course I try to not spoil myself but this month I wasn't really careful as I was scrolling through my Instagram feed. ;;

Anyway, let's peek inside last month's Mishibox!
Forencos 7 DAYS Mask // Saturday, Elasticity (sent randomly) Full Size
The first thing I saw was Song Joong Ki's face and instantly got happy! I saw these masks when I was in Seoul this year and have been thinking about buying them but in the end decided not to, because I didn't want to spend too much money on sheet masks only.
Now that I got the 7 DAYS MASK // Saturday Mayu Elastic Silk Mask of the brand FORENCOS I can still try it out! (and look at his face all day long... haha) Expect a review of this mask sooner or later! In the meantime it also made a good background for the photos of the other products. :D
Retails for: 3$ / 25ml
Berrisom Oops! My Lip Tint Pack // Virgin Red (sent randomly) Full Size
The next product is one of the raved about Oops! My Lip Tint Packs of Berrisom. I got the colour Virgin Red and immediately swatched it on the back of my hand. All I can say till now is, that's it's very fun to use, very pigmented and the stain will stay for a long while. It took me a long time until I was able to completely wash it off my skin. It's a nice red colour but I still need to see how it looks on my lips. A more 'in-depth' review with swatches will hopefully follow soon.
Retails for: 16$ / 15g
Heimish All Clean Balm Mini Size
Another popular product was included in the box! I've heard of this cleansing balm as a good substitute to the Banila Co. Clean it zero cleanser. Sadly I couldn't find it in Korea so I'm looking forward to finally try it! It's my first cleansing balm as well, so this is even more exciting.
Retails for: 5$ / 7ml (mini size) or 22$ / 120 ml (full size)
Graymelin Rice & Sugar Soft Scrub Full Size
This brand is new to me, I've never heard of it. But the packaging is beautiful and the scrub definitely smells like brown or black sugar. It claims to help remove blackheads, clean pores, control sebum and moisturize effectively. Sounds perfect for my acne-prone skin! I'll update you once I've used it.
Retails for: 20$ / 100g
Benton Aloe Vera Skin Toner & Soothing Gel Mini Size  
Last but not least were two Benton products in the box. To be honest I've never given Benton a lot of attention, except for the products everyone raves about, their snail stuff for example. But I still didn't get anything, don't ask me why. These two products, a toner and a soothing gel, contain aloe vera, that means that it's great for skin damage like acne or redness! Sadly they only come in a mini size which will be good enough for around 2 - 3 uses I guess, perfect for a weekend trip actually! 
Retails for: 17$ / 200ml (Skin Toner) and 17$ / 100ml (Soothing Gel) 
Overall thoughts
I'm quite happy with this Mishibox! All brands are either new to me or I wanted to try them but didn't have the chance yet, so this is perfect. The only thing I'm a little bit disappointed or sad about are the sizes of the Benton products. You can barely test them out for more than a few days and it'll be hard to find out if your face either loves or hates the product. But other than that I'm going to continue getting the box monthly and see what Mishibox will come up with in the future!
